Hungarian Plum Dumplings – With Vegan/Sugar Free Version

1. 1

   1. Start by boiling the unpeeled potatoes in a pot of water (for small potatoes this will take about 10-15 minutes). After they are boiled remove them from the water and let them cool for a couple of minutes then peel and mash them.

2. 2

   Put the mashed potatoes in a large bowl and add the beaten eggs (or egg substitutes), oil and flour. Mix all ingredients together until you get a sticky and smooth dough.

3. 3

   2. Mix the cinnamon, vanilla and rum extracts and the sucanat in a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of this mixture into the middle of each plum.

   3. Heat the oil in a small skillet. Add the bread crumbs and let them fry for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and put them on a large plate.

   4. Divide the dough in two. Roll the dough and cut it into dumpling-size portions (ones that appear to be big enough to wrap your plum). Take each portion and form a small ball. Flatten the ball and place the plum into the center, then remake the ball with the plum inside.

   Tip: You must have flour on your hands all the time so the dough won't stick to your fingers.

   5. Boil some water in a large pot. Add a pinch of sea salt.

8. 8

   When the water has reached boiling point, place some dumplings inside.

9. 9

   Be careful, if the dumplings stick to the bottom of the pot all you need to do is to shake it a little bit. Let them boil for 5 minutes. When ready they will rise from the bottom of the pot.

    Remove them from the water using a slotted spoon and roll them in the bread crumbs. Serve with honey (or other healthy syrup) on top.
